Let’s Do Something About Child Hunger!

donating2

Hey All!

It may be shocking, but in this day in age there are still children and families who are going hungry. One in five children in America live in households without consistent access to adequate food. I just think it’s beyond the point of unacceptable with the amount of food that goes to waste daily. This is something I’m very passionate about and have spoken about here on the blog many times in the past. We always donate to those in need multiple times a year, especially the hungry.

It’s so important to teach a younger generation the responsibilities of making the world a better place. It doesn’t take much to donate as you can now do it while you shop for your groceries thanks to grocery retailers like Albertsons Safeway. They share my beliefs in wanting to help the hungry and they are doing there part by having a national ā€œHunger Isā€ campaign taking place September 1st through September 30th, 2015. It will truly help aid in the relief of childhood hunger in America.

It’s such an important cause to support. No child or their family should be hungry in this day in age. It’s something that truly must come to an end in my eyes.
